We are using XamDateTimeInput control in our project.
Below is the mentioned issue:
Whenever user selects datetime control the cursor position by default set to 2nd index (This is because of the property named “SelectionStart” set to “2”).
Now if user change cursor position and looses focus from current datetime input control and come back to current Datetime input control then it remembers previous cursor position and by default cursor sets to old index position.
We need expected behavior as below:
We need a way where, user clicks on any position in datetime control and cursor should started blinking at that position only.
I.e. If user clicks on 8th position then cursor should cursor should start blinking at “8” position only instead of 2nd position or last remembered.
Kindly requesting you to help us with DateTime control Selection issue.
Hi cfosterj,
I have created case CAS-115804-Q0C0X7 to facilitate further investigation of this issue.
I have observed the behavior that you have expressed interest in, but only with the generic Silverlight TextBox. The behavior of resuming from the most recent cursor position is consistent across all four of the Xam-Input editor controls and this appears to be the expected behavior for this scenario.
I do have an idea for one possible approach which would achieve the behavior that you are interested in, with the XamDateTimeInput control, but developing this approach would be quite involved and would require the submission of a product idea.
Just in case, I am placing an inquiry to my development team to verify that this behavior was intended and for any suggested approaches they might recommended, where feasible.
I will be following up with you via the above mentioned case regarding this inquiry and I will also be updating this forum thread for any other interested parties.
If you have any further questions in the meantime, please let me know.
